Our
approach to cabinet case construction incorporates the best
features of European-origin frameless construction and 32mm
borings, with the American modular dimensional system.
The benefits are available in a case package that is designed
for the American cabinet maker, designer, architect and builder.
Frameless
Construction
CabParts, Inc.
cabinet
cases are designed for true frameless construction. The case
bottom,
top and sides are constructed of full-thickness (5/8" or
3/4") materials, per your specification. In addition:
- Select
from stock melamine colors. Or specify from a wide range of
panel finishes.
- Select
your edge finish from a wide variety of PVC's and hardwood
veneers.
- All
parts are cut to size, drilled, milled and dadoed as required,
ready for assembly.
- Two Assembly
Methods:
(1) Confirmat
® screws with hardwood
alignment dowels inserted, or (2)
Hardwood 8mm x 30mm dowels factory inserted. (glue and
clamping required)
- Box
ends are line-drilled with 5mm diameter holes on 32mm centers
to accommodate adjustable shelf clips and/or 32mm European-style
hardware.
- All
boxes have full tops and bottoms. (Except sink bases)
-
Backs (1/4") are dadoed into ends, tops and bottoms, to be fully
housed after box assembly.
- Boxes
for drawers have one front rail under the top drawer position.
- Sink
boxes have one back rail and one front rail or sub-apron,
as required by the box type.
- Sink
boxes milled for a Tilt-Out-Sink-Tray have a top sub-apron
(1-3/4" wide) and one drawer rail.
In addition to cabinet boxes, CabParts, Inc. can supply drawer
boxes, rollout shelves, adjustable
shelves, (supplied with shelf clips), fixed shelves, slab-type
door and drawer fronts modular, Closet/Storage/Organizer systems
and functional hardware.
For the designer or cabinet maker who wishes to add a face-frame
and traditional doors and/or drawer fronts, the CabParts case
will readily accept your choice of front. Building upon the
strong, clean and uniformly accurate CabParts case assures you
of the best foundation for your finished craftsmanship.
32mm
Boring Patterns
All
CabParts components, including sides, tops, bottoms and drawer
parts are bored on 32mm centers. This assures you of
the
greatest flexibility in adding hardware, such as hinge blocks,
drawer guides and studs for KD shelves. Since the holes
are already bored, these hardware items can be assembled to
the case component while still "in-the-flat" prior
to making up the case. Errors and exceptions to the hardware
attachment job are all but eliminated since all boring is modular
in location, and referenced from a standard datum. This
means that field assembly and rework time is dramatically reduced.
Drawers fit, doors hang true and shelf spacing is widely adjustable.
American
Modular System
Adapting
European frameless construction and 32mm boring patterns to
American modular dimensions is the final part of the CabParts,
Inc.
system.
All CabParts cases are dimensioned according to American standards.
For example, a "W1830" is a wall cabinet, 18 inches
wide, 30 inches high, with a standard depth of 11-3/4";
standard base boxes are 30-1/2" high and 23-3/4" deep.
Customized
Boxes
In
addition to the 1,500 standard configurations and sizes found
in the catalog, CabParts, Inc. will manufacture nonstandard
boxes
to fit your particular situation. Customized boxes are priced
on request.
